Categories     Main Dish     Slow Cooker     Soup

Time 6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 medium onion (chopped)
1 cup wild rice or wild rice blend (uncooked) (the cook time listed on the package should be about 45 minutes, rinsed and drained)
1 medium butternut squash (peeled, seeded and cut into ¾-inch pieces (about 4 cups))
15 ounce can white beans (I used cannellini, rinsed and drained)
4 ribs celery (chopped)
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon garlic powder
½ teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1 bay leaf
6 cups low sodium vegetable broth
6 cups chopped kale (or fresh spinach, optional)

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients to the slow cooker except for the broth and kale.
  • Pour the broth into the slow cooker, and gently stir to combine.
  • Cook on low setting for about 6 hours, or on high setting for about 3 ½ hours, until the rice is cooked and tender. As all slow cookers vary, cooking time may be different in your slow cooker compared to mine. Near the end of the cook time, check to see if the rice is done. Once the rice is tender, the soup has cooked long enough.
  • Remove the bay leaf.
  • Stir kale into soup. Serve.

SLOW COOKER MUSHROOM AND WILD RICE SOUP



Slow Cooker Mushroom and Wild Rice Soup image

Making creamy soups in the slow cooker can be tricky because it's not possible to simmer them with the top off and reduce the liquid. One easy way to thicken without reducing is to use a roux, a mix of flour and butter. Heat the roux in the microwave, then whisk it into the stock in the slow cooker before adding the other ingredients. (If you don't have a microwave, simply melt the butter in a small saucepan, stir in the flour, let it bubble, then proceed.) This soup is best prepared on the high setting for two reasons: First, when cooked on low, the wild rice becomes too soft before the mushrooms are tender. Second, the roux doesn't thicken as effectively on low. If you need a longer cook time, omit the rice, put the soup on low for 8 hours, and turn the heat up to high before serving. Cook the rice separately according to package directions, then stir it in before serving. Find a pressure cooker version of this recipe here.

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 2h

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

4 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/2 stick)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
5 cups vegetable or chicken stock, plus more as needed
1/4 cup dry white wine (see Tip)
2 pounds mixed mushrooms (such as cremini and shiitake), tough stems removed, chopped into 1/2- to 1-inch pieces
1 cup wild rice (about 6 ounces)
2 celery stalks, finely chopped
1 small yellow or red onion, grated or minced
1 large carrot, peeled and finely chopped
6 garlic cloves, smashed and chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme or 1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Kosher salt and black pepper
1/2 cup sour cream
Chopped scallions or chives and fresh dill, for topping

Steps:

  • Put the butter in a microwave-safe container (a liquid measuring cup works well) and microwave until the butter is completely melted, 30 seconds to 1 minute. With a fork, whisk the flour into the butter to make a smooth mixture the texture of cake batter, then microwave until the roux is steaming hot and bubbling slightly around the edges, about 30 seconds.
  • Scrape the roux into a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker and whisk in the stock and wine. Stir in the mushrooms, wild rice, celery, onion, carrot, chopped garlic, thyme and garlic powder. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and several generous grinds of black pepper. Cook on high until most of the rice grains are just slightly split open and the vegetables are tender, about 4 hours. (The soup can hold for 1 to 2 hours on the warm setting, but eventually the wild rice will overcook.)
  • Turn the heat to warm. Put the sour cream in a small bowl and slowly whisk in a few spoonfuls of the hot soup until smooth, then stir the mixture into the soup. (This prevents the sour cream from separating.) If you'd like the soup to be thinner, whisk in warm broth or water to the desired consistency. Taste the soup and add more salt and pepper to taste.
  • Divide the soup among bowls and top with chopped scallions or chives and dill. Reheat any leftovers on low until warm. (Boiling can cause the sour cream to break.)

Tips:

  • Use a variety of vegetables. This will give your soup a more complex flavor and texture. Some good options include carrots, celery, onions, potatoes, and corn.
  • Don't overcook the rice. Wild rice takes longer to cook than white rice, so be careful not to overcook it. Otherwise, it will become mushy.
  • Add the confetti pasta last. This will prevent it from overcooking and becoming mushy.
  • Season the soup to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of lemon juice or vinegar for a bit of brightness.
  • Serve the soup hot. This soup is best served hot, so reheat it if necessary before serving.

Conclusion:

Slow-cooker confetti wild rice soup is a delicious and easy-to-make soup that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is packed with flavor and vegetables, and it is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you are looking for a hearty and comforting soup, give this recipe a try.
